The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA) is a significant legal framework in India that regulates the real estate sector. Enacted in 2016, RERA aims to protect homebuyers' interests, promote transparency, and establish a fair and accountable environment for the real estate industry. The law mandates that real estate developers register their projects with a regulatory authority, providing detailed project information, timelines, and financial disclosures. RERA mandates that developers deposit a certain percentage of project funds in an escrow account to ensure project completion. It prohibits misleading advertisements and requires developers to provide accurate information to buyers. RERA also empowers buyers with the right to timely possession, stage-wise payment plans, and legal remedies for project delays or breaches. The law establishes appellate tribunals to address disputes and grievances. RERA plays a pivotal role in fostering investor confidence, curbing malpractices, and promoting professionalism within India's real estate sector.
